Random clothing showing up in "My Favorites" > "Places"

[ParkCityUSA (CityofPark)]

This happened to me as well. Very strange.

[HelpSupport01 (sgtest7)]

Just wanted to add that it’s because there are specific Experiences which have clashing Universe IDs with catalog items. For example: The Roblox Battle Royale - Roblox by Roblox Resources has the Universe ID of 1796927322, which clashes with a clothing on the catalog (Pilot Suit - Roblox)

I have like 50 pages of favorited games I was so worried that the games were going to be replaced by clothing

[Bobytoeburrito (Innovator)]

I noticed today that a ton of my favorited games have been overwritten by clothing. I hope there’s a way to revert this.

I reached out to multiple friends of mine and this seems to be happening to everyone

Edit:
I was able to find a game that this happens to. It seems to be specific ids?
Original Game: CityScape 🏙️ - Roblox
Converted Asset: e - Roblox

Similar issue, I made an alt for favoriting weird games so I can play later and on said alt I kept finding random clothing items in my favorites.

Roblox seems to be misidentifying games and clothing, as they can share the same id, one example is 1609765104 which should be places of fate, however it is a shirt. Your favorites will not be lost and im 99% sure about that, this seems to just be a slight issue with telling universe ids apart from other assets, most likely due to the inventory api getting changed

Same here, just noticed it, really strange, thinking I was somehow hacked but this might look like a real bug of some sort.

Yes, my favorited games are still favorited when I go to their individual pages, they just aren’t all showing up in the favorite places list, and instead show clothing items. But it doesn’t appear like any of my favorites have actually been lost - just unable to be located easily.

[ziplocBag]

yup, i have also noticed that some of my favorite games are replaced by these random clothing items, a bit bazaar

[bas3less (base)]

same, I was confused on seeing that the games I did favorite got replaced by clothing (in places?)

how do you even get negative favorites

[CraX_573]

I can replicate this. Even in my faves going back to 2009 there are still clothing items appearing instead of places.

Interestingly however, the homepage favorites list + the favorites sort linked by it don’t reflect this, but the inventory type favorites page does reflect it.

(inv-style faves vs faves sort)

@poopmaniscool8678

as they can share the same id

I thought this was the case at first too but after checking for myself this doesn’t seem to be the cause of the issue.

My most recently favorited game is Restaurant Tycoon 2, yet the clothing that’s there in its place doesn’t share the same ID.

Cool

Restaurant Tycoon 2

The clothing’s ID is “1214576306” and Restaurant Tycoon 2’s ID is “3398014311”.

[poopmaniscool8678 (poopman)]

Roblox Displays the placeid in the url (as if it was to show the universeid in the url games with multiple places wouldnt have sperate pages), however the universe id is indeed the same as the clothing i just checked

You can check yourself if you ctrl+f in the inspect screen and type in “data-universe-id”

Is it only happening for this user? I haven’t gone to profiles enough to pay attention to this.

[poopmaniscool8678 (poopman)]

Happening to everyone who has favorite games that have universe ids that match clothing ids

[hunterk1241 (HunterDaFloofer)]

This has been happening to me. I thought it was my plugins, but it still occurs when they are disabled

[Blizzory (colin)]

Any update on this? It’s been almost three weeks and I still can’t look through my favorite games list without a bunch of random clothing articles replacing the games I want to play.

I think it’s considered a low priority bug, so it might take a few weeks-months for it to be fixed, if it’s too much of a bother for you, then here’s a java script function that I wrote which deletes the catalog items on microsoft edge (might need to tweak a bit for a different browser)

function RemoveRobloxInventoryAds() {
    let FOR_ROBLOX_ID = "assetsItems"
    if (document.URL.includes('roblox.com') && document.URL.includes('favorites')) {
        let PAGE = document.getElementById(FOR_ROBLOX_ID);
        if (PAGE.children == null) {return}
        for (index in PAGE.children) {
            let child = PAGE.children[index] ; if (child.children == null) {continue}; 
            let ElementThatStoresHREF = child.children[0].children[0]

            if (ElementThatStoresHREF.href != null && ElementThatStoresHREF.href.includes('www.roblox.com/catalog')) {
              //  console.log(ElementThatStoresHREF.href)
                child.remove()
            }
        }
    
    }
    
}

I should mention though, this is my first time using java script so I apologize if it’s buggy or looks ‘nooby.’
